If you can't travel abroad this summer, don't worry: These new pop-up picnic options offer a taste of the Mediterranean.
NYC's PopUpPicnic Group is partnering with Cedar's Foods to add some summery, Mediterranean-inspired food options to their picnic menu.

PopUpPicnic is known for its lavish picnic setups, complete with floor cushions, pillows and gorgeous tablescapes with a "modern garden party" theme. They even handle all the location scouting, setup and cleanup. Each picnic runs for two hours of outdoor fun.
Its new menu now includes Cedar’s hommus and tzatziki dip served with pita chips, garbanzo salad, taboule salad, edamame salad, stuffed grape leaves and sandwiches. For dessert, expect mini tea cakes and cookies.
This is the first time the family-owned Cedar's has teamed up with PopUpPicnic Group for these luxurious, Mediterranean-inspired picnics available all summer long.
When booking, be sure to note the area of NYC for your picnic and include if it's for a special occasion like an engagement or date night. You can add on outdoor games, fresh roses and even photography for an additional fee.

Catering is optional and even if you choose to bring your own food, PopUpPicnic will still provide plating, cups and serving utensils. Now through the end of August, every catered picnic will include some of Cedar's Mediterranean options.
